Sending Sysex with Patterns

Hello Everyone,

I have a quick question about utilizing other midi commands besides \noteon within patterns. In the MIDIOut help file is says that 

The following keys are supported by midi event:

\noteOn
\noteOff
\polyTouch
\control
\program
\touch
\bend
\allNotesOff
\smpt
\songPtr
\sysex

So if I wanted to send a new sysex message randomly between every 2-5 seconds, how would I implement that? I would imagine just sending the sysex Int8Arrays in a Pseq or something like that. But how would I control the timing of the sysex commands? I would appreciate any help.

Thank You,
Carl
